D                   G
Sun's out we got a beach day
            A
Forget yourself say why
don't we people watch?
D
Kids all playing
G             A
round in the sand
(Little boy crying)
    D                  G
Oh no! He's got some troubles
        A
Got us laughing as he throws his shovel
D                 G        A
Nothing's really going as planned

Chorus:
D G       Em
I  don't know how we're
 A             D      G  Em
gonna build a castle now
        A
Do you want to start
  D        G
again somehow?
       Em            A
I'll stay until the sun
     D    G     Em  A
comes down down down
Are you smiling?

Look over my shoulder
See your laughter bubble over
Lately, you've been working too hard
And I've been waiting to recognize
That sparkle that's in your eye
Those two dimples on your cheeks
The joy that lights the fire

Chorus

                   D          G
There's a hole in hole In my bucket
                D
dear Liza dear Liza
There's a hole In my
 G                  D
bucket dear Liza a hole

Chorus:
D G      Em
I  don't know, I
   A                 D      G  Em
supposed to build a castle now
        A
Do you want to start
  D        G
again somehow?
       Em            A
I'll stay until the sun
     D    G
comes down
      Em            A
I'll stay until the sun comes
D G      Em
I  don't know how we're
A              D      G  Em
gonna build a castle now
        A
Do you want to start
  D        G
again somehow?
       Em            A
I'll stay until the sun
     D    G     Em  A
comes down down down
